Default GWX + other mods - specific questions

Hi all,

Hopefully this will be the last of my "start up" questions for a while:

Does anyone use the following mods with GWX and do they work well together and/or is there any point in adding these to GWX:

1) SHWeather
2) Sh3Gen


They sound interesting, if they bring something even (hard to believe) to the table over and above GWX.

Other than than, I am going to vanish into the depths for some serious GWX mayhem. I must penetrate Gibraltar.........

They both work with any version of SH3.

They are standalone programs which will not affect your choice of game.

Hmmm.

I have tried twice now and I found ti very challenging thus far. The escorts seem to have amazing visual range, even in the middle of the night.

At one point last dive I had 11 escorts all trying to DC me. Of course, I was deep, silent and moving away. Not a single DC even rattled my boat to any serious degree.

I did notice that one escort ran through the DC pattern that another had laid down and didn't seem to be bothered by the fact that DCs were exploding right underneath it.

But with 11 escorts all in one place, you have to figure someone is going to run over someone else.

Actually, I figured that it was to my advantage because there was so much freidn;y interference topside that the escorts didn't have the freedom to navigate and prosecute me properly.

Sweet

I was only concerened because it seems like they alter the save game and I didn't know if GWX was okay with that.

If you try something and there is an adverse effect, rollback commander, uninstall with JSGME.

If your after a challenge try Loch Ewe
Never install anything into your game that doesn't need JSGME to do so
